### Question: Who is at highest risk for Angina ?
### Response: Studies have found a number of factors that may induce angina. The risk factors of coronary artery disease are as the same as Angina. It concludes bad lifestyle and cardiovascular diseases risk factors. Some you can change and some you can not change.
Risk factors you can change
Cigarette smoking: Cigarette somking has a close relationship with many cardiovascular diseases. Smokers' risk of developing coronary heart disease is 2–4 times than that of nonsmokers. Besides, it is also a powerful independent risk factor for sudden cardiac death in patients with coronary heart disease; smokers have about twice the risk of nonsmokers. Furthermore, cigarette smoking acts with other risk factors to greatly increase the hazard for coronary heart disease. People who smoke seem to have a higher risk of death from coronary heart diseases (and possibly stroke) but these risk isn't as great as cigarette nonsmokers'.

Diabetes mellitus: Like hypertension, patients with diabetes mellitus seem to have a higher risk to develope coronary artery disease. Because diabetes mellitus damage both coronary arteries and myocardial capillary vessels. Drinking too much alcohol: Data has demonstrated too much alcohol damage your arteries and myocardium.
Risk factors that you cannot change
